Ohio: Romney 47, Empty Chair 44
Gravis Marketing ^ | 9/4/2012

Posted on 09/05/2012 9:33:34 AM PDT by KansasGirl

Gravis Marketing and Capitol Correspondent conducted a survey of 1,381 registered voters on the afternoon and evening of September 2, 2012 in the state of Ohio.

Obama’s previous lead over Romney of 45.3% to 44.4% has switched to a Romney lead of 46.8% to 43.7%. Although within the previous polls margin of error, the Republican convention appears to have given Romney a 2 point bump while taking 1 point from Obama. Switching to the Senate race, before the Republican convention, Democrat Sherrod Brown held a nar- row 43.6% to 41.4% lead over Republican Josh Mandel. Again, although within the margin of error, the post- convention poll gives Republican Mandel the advantage at 44.3% to 43.5%, representing a 3 point bump for Mandel, while Brown’s take staying basically constant.

a survey of 1,381 registered voters

Which is really bad news for Team 0 since register voters polls always track to the left of reality.

Saying “empty chair” is clearly hate-filled racism. And the GOP are Nazis.

If it was likely voters, the result would have been more like 49-42 Romney.

If it wouldn’t be heresy to butcher such a beautiful song, I’d write a parody around Don McLean’s “Empty Chairs”.

I think that Mandel will receive more votes than Mitt, and may actually pull Mitt over the top in Ohio. Brown is just loathsome, despicable, detestable, and it’s easy for indies NOT to vote for him..

ACCOUNTABILITY: It's what we need in Washington D.C. and Josh Mandel gets it!

Here at the Tea Party Express we strive to hold politicians accountable.  That means all politicians, both Democrat AND Republican. 

It wasn't just one party that got us in this mess and it will take leaders that are willing to hold both sides accountable to get us out.

We have found such a leader in Josh Mandel and that is why we are proud to endorse his candidacy for U.S. Senate.
